Interactive Inspiration [43]

After weeks dedicated on the NBA finals and the Stanley Cup, the Confederations Cup in Brazil and the Wimbledon tournament, it’s time for another world competition to be the center of the attentions. The Tour de France completes its 100th edition, and there are several interactive visualizations – as in print magazines and newspapers – about the competition.

Apart from that the big news of the day is the release of Immersion, a MIT service that lets you visualize your own email metadata. You need to authorize the service to access your Gmail account, but the results are quite impressive, with a network visualization and several graphics about your email activity. You can explore it here.

Here are the interactive visualizations of the week:
